In the house, Wu Gen and Master Qiu discussed for a long time.
Needless to say, although the old man was angry with Wu Gen, he explained everything in detail. Why this is so and how to use it are explained clearly. As a result, Wu Gen felt a little embarrassed, taking so many things for nothing.
A day passed by, and the two of them just had some simple meals, and finally explained the rune clearly.
Wu Gen stood up and bowed deeply to the old man, "A real talent, Wu Gen is grateful."
Master Qiu proudly accepted this gift and said with a smile on his face, "In other words, this talisman is of little use to practitioners. I don't know what your intention is in making it with so much effort."
Wu Gen smiled and said, "Let Qian Li protect himself."
Master Qiu was stunned, "Why does the prince suddenly value the people of Guizhou so much?"
Wu Gen raised his hands to the sky and said, "My lord, you are just being kind."
"Oh." Master Qiu suddenly said, "By the way, although this talisman is simple, it has shortcomings."
"What shortcomings?"
"The object that this talisman carries needs to be very strong, but ordinary arrows, swords and guns cannot withstand it. I tried a variety of materials to no avail, so I reluctantly carved it on the jade. If it is a weapon, it needs to be made of fine iron. It is made into a fetus, and the spiritual jade is embedded in it before it can be used."
Wu Gen frowned, where could he find this fine iron? If it was so difficult to make, then what use would this talisman have to a mortal?
Seemingly sensing Wu Gen's thoughts, Master Qiu stroked his beard and said with a smile, "It's not difficult to find fine iron. It can be said to be right before our eyes."
"Who has fine iron?"
"Genshanmen, this is a specialty of their sect, and the quality is quite good. People from other continents even come here to buy it."
"Zhang Qing..." Wu Gen looked a little ugly.
Zhao Ling's trip was quite successful. He not only cracked the ancient talismans, but also obtained many classics. Now that his goal has been achieved, he might as well return to Guanxi City as soon as possible. As for Huang Li, it was a rare occasion for him to come back. Zhao Ling was in a good mood and gave him a few days off to stay in Yanming Mountain.
Looking at the motorcade going away, Huang Li looked uneasy, "Master, so many treasured classics have been taken away. It is really because my disciple is not accurate in recognizing people, and he only invites this disaster."
Master Qiu stroked his beard, with an inscrutable look on his face, "It doesn't matter, those are basic sutras, and there are many backups in the mountains. But this Zhao Ling, who values these ancient runes so much, must set up his own school. Don't forget. , King Jinchun is a man who likes to practice. This woman is very ambitious. Disciple, when you get along with her, you should be neither far nor close, so be careful."
"My disciple knows that the master is wise."
Not to mention the wild guesses of the master and the disciple, Wu Gen actually came up with the idea of how to obtain fine iron on the way back.
Ask Zhang Qing directly, what are you thinking, that guy is not easy to get along with at first glance. It seems that the only way to find a solution is Zhao Ling. However, this princess has always been shrewd, so he probably won't be tempted if he can't come up with a good price.
Returning to Guanxi City, Wu Gen began to sort out the things he brought back from Master Qiu. The more he thought about it, the more he was impressed by the wisdom of the ancients. The runes on the arrows were only a few strokes, but when it came to Master Qiu, they were much more complicated.
According to what Master Qiu said, I tried to draw it on paper many times, but always failed. After throwing away the thousandth piece of paper, Wu Gen sighed, wondering if he had no talent at all in drawing talismans.
Seven days later, Huang Li rushed back to the palace and for the first time took the initiative to visit Wu Gen's gate. Seeing Wu Gen, who had blood-red eyes and a depressed expression, Huang Li had a narrow look on his face, "Brother Wu, hey, what's going on? Why are you so haggard after not seeing him for a few days? Could it be that something is difficult."
Wu Gen said feebly: "Old Huang, it seems that I really can't draw the talisman. I have been practicing hard for many days, but in the end I have achieved nothing. Alas, from now on, I can only rely on you to draw the talisman. I heard that Weng is going to make the Talisman Arrow Ten Wan Zhi, the project is huge, thank you for your hard work."
Huang Li was startled. One hundred thousand branches would cost him his life. Drawing talismans also requires energy and energy. Drawing ten talismans a day is the limit. These 100,000 arrows are carved on them bit by bit with your own spiritual energy. The day when the arrows are completed, it is the time of your death.
"Brother Wu, don't be anxious. Master just thought that something was not going well, so he sent me back quickly. Drawing talisman is not something that can be done overnight. It requires hard work and perseverance. And, if you want to do it well, , you must sharpen your tools first.
Drawing talismans also requires a special talisman pen, which is infused with spiritual energy when using the pen. If there is no spiritual energy, Wufu's true energy will do. For the great cause of Wengzhu, Master specially presented two talisman pens to Brother Wu. Keep practicing, keep practicing, and I believe that with your talent, you will be able to draw the Blood Spirit Talisman soon."
When Wu Gen heard this, he became furious and grabbed Huang Li's front, "Well, you Huang Li, and your master Qiu Ba, why didn't you tell me when we were on the mountain, so that I don't think about tea and food these days, for fear of delaying the master's important affairs. .Tell me, did you mean it?"
Huang Li looked at Wu Gen with a smile, and gently brushed his hand away, "Tit for tat, you have taken away so many sutras from Master, why don't you want us to collect a little interest? Isn't this a gift of two pens as a gift? Compensation, what else is Brother Wu dissatisfied with?"
He stood up and hesitated when he came to the door and said, "Brother Wu, I may not be able to produce one hundred thousand arrows even if I squeeze you dry. Think again."
Also, Master said that Chu Ji, who was by your side that day, was very sensitive to changes in aura. If she wasn’t about to become a noble, she would be a great help to you. With her watching when you were drawing the talisman, your chances of success might be higher. It will be much bigger. "
Looking at Huang Li's figure, Wu Gen nodded. Although this kid is not very smart, he is not bad at heart.
Now that you have a talisman pen, it will be difficult to draw talismans for a while, so it is better to ask Zhao Ling for some fine iron first. For this reason, Wu Gen took Chu Ji with him to visit Zhao Ling. The reason why he brought Chu Ji with him was because he wanted Zhao Ling not to make things too difficult for him for the sake of his future sister.
When he saw Zhao Ling, Wu Gen told him his thoughts, thinking about getting ten kilograms of refined iron.
Zhao Ling was a little confused and said: "The art of witchcraft and Gu requires fine iron. Isn't it just carving a little man, making a puppet or something?"
"My lord, I don't know. The magic power of the charlatans and sorcerers is shallow, and they can be made of wood. However, the killing power of what I have learned is huge, and ordinary objects cannot carry its meaning. It must be made of fine iron.
Thinking about it, as the owner, if he uses this witchcraft, he will definitely be a formidable opponent, so it is better to be more careful. "Wu Gen bent down deeply and gave a salute, but his eyes were fixed on the pearl on Zhao Ling's shoes. Well, this thing is valuable.
"Okay, I've done so much before, and I don't need this last tremor. But Wu Gen, I remind you that it only takes three steps. Last time I gave you a copper slip, which contains the method of making tofu. , it’s the so-called white jade bean.
Secondly, I brought the runes from Yanming Mountain and gave them to you in full. For this matter of fine iron, you have to show some sincerity when asking for help. You can't take advantage of me in vain. "Zhao Ling looked at Wu Gen meaningfully.
Taking advantage, Wu Gen couldn't help but think of what happened on the carriage, and said aggrievedly: "Ahem, my lord, I was in the carriage that day, but you first..."
"Be presumptuous, you will have to rot in your stomach for what you have done in the past. Let me tell you clearly, you have to pay some price for this fine iron matter. Do you know that a pound of fine iron costs a hundred taels of gold, and this is still me It's because I'm familiar with Genshanmen." Zhao Ling suddenly became angry, startling everyone in the room.
Wu Gen thought for a moment and then replied cautiously, "I don't know what my master wants. As long as it's something external, we can discuss it."
"Are you a prostitute or not a prostitute? I want the recipe and production method of white jade bean sprouts." Zhao Ling said loudly.
"Huh?" Wu Gen raised his head in surprise, with thousands of thoughts running through his mind. Looking at Zhao Ling's unquestionable expression, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, but the fine iron will cost thirty kilograms."
"Twenty pounds."
"make a deal."
Zhao Ling was stunned, "No more bargaining." Although twenty kilograms of fine iron was not cheap, white jade can make money in the long run. Wu Gen spit it out so quickly, which surprised her.
Wu Gen had other ideas. The reason why this tofu is so expensive is that it is a new food and it is an exclusive operation. If someone is willing to imitate it, there is actually nothing complicated about it, so it is better to sell it at a better price as soon as possible.
The two of them discussed it well, each was happy, and both felt that they had taken advantage of the other.
Three days after handing over the method of making tofu, I got twenty kilograms of refined iron. This iron is extraordinary at first glance. There are a few stars twinkling on the dark iron, and it is even more dazzling when placed in the sun.
Fine iron is generally used by people who practice qi to forge magic weapons. Genshanmen happens to occupy an iron mine, so it can be said that you lie down and collect money.
While Wu Gen was practicing drawing talismans with a talisman pen, he was also very busy thinking about how to make arrows out of fine iron.
When drawing talisman every day, Wu Gen would take Chu Ji with him. Sure enough, as Master Qiu said, this little guy is very sensitive to breath changes. Although she doesn't know the meaning of the runes, she can tell at a glance whether the breath moves smoothly every time the runes move.
These days, with Chu Ji's help, Wu Gen has become more and more aware of the Blood Spirit Talisman, and is confident that he will be able to break through soon. But I never thought that the first person to draw the painting was not him, but Chu Ji.
On this day, Wu Gen took a break between drawing talisman. Chu Jixian was bored, so he picked up the talisman pen and with a swipe, he drew a blood spirit talisman. Although this talisman has little aura and can even be carried by ordinary paper, it is finally done.
Wu Gen's face turned dark when he saw the little guy playing with the talisman and folding the boat. He couldn't compare with Master Qiu, not even a child.
There was no way to draw the talisman, so Wu Gen and the blacksmith worked hard. I found the largest blacksmith shop in the city, borrowed a complete set of tools, and hammered twenty kilograms of fine iron every day. But after swinging thousands of hammers, several hammers were broken, but the fine iron remained unchanged at all.
Poor our classmate Wu Gen, after being tricked once by Master Qiu, he was tricked again by Zhao Ling.
This fine iron cannot be melted by ordinary fire. It must be made with special earth fire.
In the end, the old shopkeeper couldn't stand it anymore and took Wu Gen to a valley outside the city. There was a natural ground fire here, which could be used to create magic weapons with a magic circle. After all, the practitioners in the palace also have to build some magic weapons, so the city is not unprepared.
Finally, after paying ten times the price, Wu Gen crafted three iron arrows.
As soon as the iron arrow came out, even the shopkeeper praised him. This arrow is very sharp, but its texture is very light, comparable to ordinary arrows. This means that it can be shot with an ordinary hard bow. After a test shot, it easily penetrated the thick armor of the guard's heavy cavalry. If the tension of the bow were higher, it would not be a problem to shoot through five layers of armor.
A second White Jade Shu shop opened by the lake. The shopkeeper was said to be a foreigner, but seeing the palace's housekeeper often walking around the door, people quickly understood who the owner was behind it.
Now it’s interesting. Both families are run by people related to the palace. Could it be possible that there is also internal strife in the palace. A group of melon-eaters speculated at the back, and visited the two houses from time to time to see what the difference was.
Compared with Wu Gen's store, the second store obviously has much larger shipments and cheaper prices, which naturally attracts many diners.
Wu Gen gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart. What Zhao Ling did was too explicit, and he clearly wanted to squeeze himself to death. Hum, now that the fine iron has been obtained, don't blame me for using some tricks.
